Gareth Bale took time out from football to show off his golf skills by finishing a session at the driving range with a trick shot worthy of Tiger Woods.

The Tottenham winger, who plays off an 11 handicap, is a regular on his local course, and proved he’s got just as good moves on the fairway as he does on the football pitch with an outrageous piece of trickery.

Bale, 23, scooped up a rogue ball with his trusty wedge and juggled it no less than eight times before unleashing a perfectly timed swing which connected on the half-volley.

Unfortunately the camera doesn’t quite catch the flight of the ball or give any indication of where it ended up, but mere fact he managed to hit it impresses us struggling golfers here at Metro towers.

US star Woods performed a similar trick in a famous Nike advert, although Bale still has quite a way to go before matching the achievements of the 14-time major winner.
